Zona Alfa - Electro Anomaly

Another small project.

Electros  are one of the more common (official) anomalies in the zone. More-or-less a patch of ground that has built up an electric charge somehow, step on or near it and blazing arcs of electricity shoot out and fry whoever triggered it. They're often found in clumps or groups and can cover a relatively large area.

I just made one. Idea copied from someone in the fb group.

The base is relatively small, wanted another small anomaly that i could drop next to a hotspot rather than an objective feature.

Pin holes drilled through a mdf base. The wire is from a spring that i straightened out - wanted something that would hold it's shape. Pushed one end through and zig-zag'd the wire with pliers. both ends were shaped into 'L's so it wouldn't pop out. Once the wires were formed i made another based and epoxied it to the underside of the main base. This covered all the wire popping out under the base.  I then cut that secondary base in half to reduce the height slightly. No wires protruding underneath - happy.

Glued on a couple of mulch wood chip which would be logs or debris. I think i originally was thinking of doing rocks but this is what happened.

Painted up. I think it will look better in situ in a darker setting. It turned out a little 'busier' than i had perhaps hoped for but it will do. it's not horrible.

"STALKER!  Don't take another step unless you want this whole sector to stink of bacon!"

The base size is a little smaller than the globe, possible a little larger than the vortex. It will be suitable for dropping in.

And that's that.

Until next time...
